It turns out that #CarrieFisher was drawing some real-life inspiration for Princess Leia's on-screen #StarWars bickering with Han Solo. The actor has confirmed that she and #HarrisonFord did indeed have an affair during the filming of #ANewHope, but was left broken-hearted after Ford returned to his wife and children once the movie had wrapped.

Ford divorced his first wife Mary Marquard just three years after the 1976 affair. Marquard stated that the couple "just grew apart," affirming Fisher's belief that the separation had nothing to do with her affair.

Ford supported Marquard financially in the years before her death, with Marquard saying the two remained good friends for years.

“He is a wonderful human being. These days, you hear so many awful stories about people. But Harrison has always been there for me whether the world has known it or not. I shall always love him for what he has done. He and I will forever be family. I realize how much love and support he has given me and continues to give me.”

In the meantime, Fisher has quashed rumors that her autobiography is going to contain any steamy details:

I would never talk about how someone was in any furniture--chair, bed, coffee table or otherwise
